November Favorites

November 30, 2012 by Hillary 10 Comments

November was a longgg (and difficult) month, but there was a lot of good stuff going on around here, too. Let’s recap on a few favorites! It’s best to look on the bright side.

Life.

  • The blog celebrated its 3rd birthday!
  • I said goodbye to my girls and reflected on my experience as a coach for Girls on the Run.

  • I had a grateful Thanksgiving weekend with Grandma & Grandpa.

Running & CrossFit Training.

  • I registered for the Jack Frost 10K and am loving my training schedule.

  • I hosted a Healthy Holiday Challenge and encourage you to join in throughout the holiday season! #sweatdailyindulgeoften

  • I fell deeper in love with CrossFit with a total of 18 WODs for the month and the motivation from a killer Winter WOD Playlist.

Eats.

  • We talked Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookies, CrossFit cravings, healthy fall comfort food recipes, and Fresh Cranberry Pumpkin Bread – mmm!

    You’re not alone – November was emotionally difficult for me as well. This whole life post-graduation has been a tough pill for me to swallow. Hope it’s treating you better than I :)

    Let’s tackle December! That peppermint bark sounds to die for. Must get my hands on that asap. TGIF :D

    November was a tough month for me too. With a move across the Atlantic, it has been an adjustment to say the least. I’m embracing it and looking forward to the holidays :)

    November has definitely been a good month for you, can’t wait to see what December brings! BTW – totally hopping on the bandwagon for your #sweatdailyindulgeoften linkup. Such a great idea… especially the indulging part :)

    It’s so nice to see that, despite it being a difficult month, you look on the bright side and write about the highlights! My month was also full of some ups and downs, but two of my highlights were running in my hometown’s annual 5K and submitting my masters thesis!

    I still get a kick out of how “BURPEES” is written nice & big on that paper. I can’t stand burpees! But because of that, I’ve actually given myself a challenge for December that involves doing burpees every day (posted about it on my blog). We’ll see how that goes :P

      That sounds like a lot of burpees :)

❷⓿❷⓿ - moved clear across the country to ❷⓿❷⓿

- moved clear across the country to a new state for the second time
- hopped from one AirBNB to the next for 6 weeks while looking for a house to call home
- made new friends, virtually & IRL
- binge watched more TV shows than I can recall
- leveled up as an entrepreneur: hitting milestones with my virtual assistant and @beautycounter businesses
- voted for a new president 
- ascended new trails and explored alpine lakes of the Pacific Northwest 
- adapted: to Zoom holidays, takeout, and masked faces becoming the (temporary) norm

This challenging year was all about appreciating the little things while living through some really BIG things. 2020 had more than a few lessons to teach us all. Through a pandemic, pivotal change in presidency, and loud cry for human rights, I see very clearly how privileged I am. It was the year to let go of plans and lean in to a new perspective. 

After all, hindsight is ②⓪②⓪.

Best thing about 2020... for me, it’s been relationships - virtual and IRL.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the goals that I set for 2020 was to make one new local friend in Seattle (seriously something I wrote down as I began the new year moving across the country). While I’m happy to say that I did so (during a pandemic), I feel fortunate for the virtual friendships that developed, too.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ve gotta take a second to give a shoutout to my newest soul sista @weeksofwonder. You helped me get after it during my second year of entrepreneurship with a hefty dose of #2020 mayhem. 🙏🏼⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Wendy and I met here on IG, and what started as a business relationship and accountability partner has turned into a special bond that transcends any walkie-talkie or social media app. This creative spirit has not only inspired me to get after it and dream bigger as an entrepreneur, but in the same way has encouraged me to honor rest and play: whether it’s giving each other kudos on Strava for tackling a run, building badass business plans and packages, or simply holding space to share the wins and the many woes, personally and professionally, of a memorable year. Having Wendy in my corner has led to some serious momentum and a sense of consistent community.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
2020 has been a shit show, but it delivered GRL PWR 👊🏻⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We want to hear from YOU: Who has been your supportive soul sister through the ups and downs of 2020? ⁣⁣
